The question, as stated, cannot be answered. Conditions of acceptability published by the cable mfr ?
Requirements of enviroment for the cable installation ? If the agency report and the issued certification/recognition specifies "tri-rated" as construction requirement, then any other construction is non-conforming. luck, Brian From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Fred Townsend Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 8:35 AM To: Gordon,Ian Cc: 'IEEE EMC & SAFETY PSTC' Subject: Re: Tri rated cable Yes I read the message.

Ian Gordon From: Gordon,Ian Sent: 24 June 2005 08:41 To: 'IEEE EMC & SAFETY PSTC' Subject: Tri rated cable All Does anyone know the detail of the differences between the three standards that combine allow a cable to be defined as "tri-rated"? We currently spec a "tri-rated" cable in our design but at this time only a UL1015 cable is available to us. Thus I am particularly interested in learning how "far away" a UL1015 specified cable is from a "tri-rated" one. Would the electrical safety (i.e. EN61010 compliance) of our products be compromised by the substitution of a UL1015 cable for a "tri-rated" one? Any help is appreciated.
